我们的法兰西岁月

In 1919, Zhou Enlai led his students to protest at the Military Governor’s Compound in Zhili Province, but he and several colleagues arrested. In prison, Zhou Enlai refused the help of Zhang Ruoming's father. Under pressure, the authorities released Zhou Enlai and others. After he was released from prison, Zhou Enlai led a group of progressive young people to France for a work-study program. From then on, he and other friends started a work-study life in a foreign land. At the same time, Zhao Shiyan, Mao Zedong and others in Beijing are also discussing ways to save the country. Cai Hesen is going to France, and bid farewell to Mao Zedong before leaving.

In 1921, Zhou Enlai and others established a communist group in Paris. At the same time, the Chen Yannian brothers began to believe in Marxism. The Beiyang warlords stopped supplying overseas students, and Cai Hesen and others went to the French residence to petition and were suppressed. The University of Lyon refused to take in the work-study students. Cai Hesen was arrested by the military and police after failing to negotiate, and they were all sent back to China. This bloodbath made them more convinced of communism.
